A Medieval Pilgrim's Companion - Reassessing "El Libro de los Huespedes" (Escorial MS.h.I.13) (Paperback)


In this book, Thomas Spaccarelli argues that the Escorial codex usually published and studied as nine separate saints' lives and romances is in fact a unified and organized whole. He shows how the codex is intimately related to the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela and to the religious, literary, and artistic traditions associated with it. Spaccarelli elucidates the Libro's ideology of pilgrimage.
